All I can compare to is the 50mm f/1.8, as it's my most similar prime in terms of length and price.

I'm expecting it to be super sharp wide open, as all of Canon recent designs seem quite good. Sure, faster would be nice, but the 50mm f/1.8 isn't at it's best before f/2.8 anyway. I usually limit myself to f/2.5.

I'm expecting nice bokeh, not pentagons.

The AF HAS to be better the than the 50mm f/1.8, especially since it's a brand new system. I expect the MF will be better too. Someone has already said it has FTM, which is nice.

The price is nice too.

Yes, I'm interested in this lens.
